PC(HO) 7658 USE OF DERIVATIVES OF CHITIN SOLUBLE IN AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS FOR PREVENTING ADHESIONS ABSTRACT A method for preventing adhesion between vital tissues includes the step of placing between the tissues a material made up of biodegradable derivatives of chitin which are soluble in aqueous solutions containing dilute acids such as acetic acid. This material has the advantage of requiring no reoperation for its removal since it would be degraded and absorbed after completing its function in vivo. These materials may be in the form of a visco- elastic fluid, a gel, a film or a membrane.
